Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Extracted Honey Today

hey you stole my but I stole your

Thanks for the bright spot in this rather sultry (this evening) forum, and a nice reminder with our weather looking a bleak -9 and white as can be .

I noticed. So, do you think it is an even trade ?

There was not much of it. I planted late on purpose but they filled their empty spots with it and put some in the honey super in the form of burr comb. The piece pictured went from my fingers into my mouth right after the picture was snapped. Buckwheat comb honey. As good as it gets and it is all gone.

You officially suck!

Honey in the comb...one of nature's treasures.

Thank you my friend. I do try hard!

I've done that with my grandparents before, was pretty fun... and tasty

Cool photos. Thanks for sharing!

What kind of cameras are you using...?

I don't think I have ever seen any woman or girl with such a rats nested hairdo in my entire life and that is saying something. I am telling you, I have seen she wolfs that have been ridden by a whole pack of young males that the fur wasn't that ratted up. I would call the health control board out there and have her tested for scabbies and such. I am not joking here.

Are you using an electric capping knife? How many supers do you do at one time in the extractor, two or four. If you call me I will share with you what I found to be the best strainer.
Cheers Don

northcountry,
Are there others around there with similar hairdos of the nymph? That is what I want to know about these beekeepers.

I got mine (on-line) from some restaurant-supply outfit back east. Forget where.

Still have some.

Use it in hot chocolate (one of the few things that I can sip and swallow).

Think I'll go have some now. It's been sitting on the counter up-side-down, so the big squeeze bottle should squirt a long, big stream. (It's pretty thick.)

If you remind me, Sis, I may have some left (or have a new batch) when you're here for the Lake shindig in July (along with some Fain's and Steen's cane syrup).

God damn your an idiot!!!

Moving on, that honey looks great! I can taste it on a hot biscuit from here.

Scott:

Please let me know what your prices are. I would like to purchase some honey from you..

Good looking honey!

I get mine from a local guy here about ten miles down the road from me. I've found it's really helped with my sinus problems, take a spoon full at night before bed.

I'm surprised that you extract in the spring. Over on our side of the Cascades, (Kittitas), I extract in September. Looks good. We had a moderate year this year and I only got a couple of supers off each hive.

Changed m'mind � added a healthy dollop of Hershey's syrup to my Nesquik instead. Also remembered where I got my buckwheat honey and discovered that I still have 'way more than I thought. I'll save it for you.

I got it from webstaurant.com, but the apiary (I just found!) has its own web site � www.dutchgoldhoney.com. I bought five pounds, and about � of it's left. It's yours. (I have a raft of things to make me sweet, but there doesn't seem to be any hope that any of 'em'll ever work!)

Looks good Scott!

Gotta love a gal that carries a pocket knife too!

Just about everyone at the Farmer's Markets here sells honey. A lot of them sell pollen too. I would think pollen would be kind of dangerous since so many people have Spring allergies. I don't know. I buy honey for about $20 for a Ball Jar. They want the jar back afterwards too. You wouldn't think it, but there's a lot of people around here that keep bees. I've been reading in the papers that this is going to be the worst year on record for maple syrup. I don't know about "worst" but pretty bad I guess. More demand for honey! Here about, they're both about the same price. Honey seems like more work for the money.

I wonder if the girl in the pic is the same one that braids garlic? I had a hippie girlfriend once (briefly) who wasn't a whole lot different. She used to floss her teeth with her hair She was also a dedicated vegetable eater, which is difficult. Her sister married one of my best friends in high school and moved to Monterrey. My girl moved back to North Carolina and became a kindergarten teacher. Nice girl, strange, but nice...

She has carried a knife on and of for a lot of years but when we moved to the ranch in Central Oregon ten years ago she learned to carry it all day, every day.
